Virgillia: Definitely favorite character on the Witches side. I love her character and she's so mysterious and I love her OKAY I'LL SERVE YOU SOME DELICIOUS TEA thing<3 Iunno, I just love her character the most out of all.

Gaap: Second favorite, awesome personality, great design. I love her attitude and I think she has one of the best designs, she's just pretty awesome.

Ronove PU KU KU. One of the most amusing characters ever and makes me smile every time he appears on the screen. His fight with Jessica is bonus points, as well. He's the most amusing character on the Witches side.

Eva Beatrice: Kind of a bitch, but even so, I like her character plenty. Favorite character on the Witches side for episode 3. Ep 4 just eh.

Bernkatsel: Not comparing my love for her in Higurashi since it's different than in Umineko, even with how cruel she is, I like her character a lot. I just do.

Beato: I don't really know why..she's just so fun when she gets mean but she can be so melodramatic as well. I've only watched the anime and I gotta say, her character is confusing as hell (so far). Which is sort of nice xD

Ronove: Cheeky Buttler with a sense of humor, need I say more? Oh, and he's not a typicle bishie or shota, but no old guy either.

Lamda: I love her character. Such a care-free sadist!

Satan: Angry people are amusing. Well, in anime.

Gaap: Despite her whore-ish dress, I like her for some reason. Must be the name...Gaaaap

....GAAAAAAAAAPPPPP what kind of name is that? Another name for the devil or some demon? I think it is.

Bernkastel: No matter who she truly is, I always liked her role and aura around her. Of course, she is nowhere close to Frederica Bernkastel in term of personality, but nevertheless, I do not mind her "horrible" behavior that is hinted in the end of Episode 4 (which I still think that leave to a possible 50/50 chance for being a protagonist or antagonist).
And Yukarin sounds always sexy :3

Virgilia: I always liked her design and her personality suits her role and presence. Voiced by "forever 17 years old" Inoue, she is basically the voice of wisdom (if we give her some slack for her silliness in Ep4). Of course, she was also pretty much a weapon of mass destruction as well... A shame the anime didn't show the extent of Gungnir and Mjollnir.

Ronove: Too bloody brilliant with his jabs and laughter, Ronove was always a very pleasant character, extremely amusing to boot (poking fun to Beato and Battler alike).
And being a skillful butler is always a nice bonus point.

Also voted 2 extra, for the furniture section:

Belphegor: probably the most reasonable of the 7 sisters and I like her design and personality the most, closely followed by Asmodeus. Of course, if you add that duel with Rudolf, it earns her tons of point (quite honorable to accept this, but also brave to shield her moronic master).

Siesta00: Stylish and doesn't look any ridiculous to me, unlike 45 and 410. I always got a fond of that kind of kuudere.

Pretty much like the human's side, the witch's side has a lot of colorful characters that have a merit in several fields, as being entertaining, interesting and so forth.
Of course, Beatrice is among -the- best developed of the lot, though my vote didn't go through because of a bloody mistake of my part *facepalm*.

My favorites are Ronove and Bernkastel.
Ronove is just plain badass and he seems to be more powerful than any of the witches. He always seems to know the answer and has an epic laugh.
Bernkastel always seemed like a nice person, so I never really liked her. But after seeing how cruel she can be, it just makes her more epic...

Beatrice - No questions asked. She's definietly a major favorite, mostly because of the anime to be honest.

Ronove - His jabs at both Battler and Beato always bring a good feeling.

Gaap - One of the more...unique magical characters. While we had friends of Beatrice's that were more intelligent and calm (Virgilia) and more jabbing and sinister (Ronove) we have Gaap, who brings a very good mix of the two together.

Leviathan -total lesbian I don't think the anime did her right, but I still love her whiny attitude nonetheless.

Belphegor - A true bro stake. Taking the bullet for a moron like Evatrice was a truly heroic thing to do.

Aaaah great dilemma!
I hesitated between Eva-Beatrice, which reach the higher level of crazyness but not too much (unlike two other characters ).
She represent the pure witch side, the one who use magic for her personnal benefit, but still keep such a class. Furthermore, her seiyuu, though different from what I thought, was just perfect!

But finally, I choosed Virgilia. For me, she represents the motherly, calm, good witch. But it don't prevent her from being powerfull and having experience which she use in order to create perfect plans (North Wind and Sun). The fact that she gave up her title support this vision: She is observing from outside, not carring anymore about her, entirely devoted to the others. She is a character important both for Beatrice and Battler, and I think I can say without a doubt that she is a pillar of the turn of the events.
It is this neutral status, which is benefic for all sides, that makes me love her... and she has the best lines in Ep5, the ones which makes me almost cry :'(.
For me, she is the best character of the entire serie.

I also thought about Bernkastel... but it's no good, the recent events definetly made me throw her out of my poll > It is too bad, because in Ep1-4, she was my favorite, but I don't like her anymore. Come back Frederika!!!!

Concerning the furniture, I love Satan. She is not the most remarcable, but I like this, because i feel like she always try to pull attention on her, and like her description says, even if she is incarnation of Wrath, she is also very shy
But I confessed that her design is just so MOE!

Honestly, people saying Beatrice's name was probably why I stuck with this anime. Her legends and the flair she has in the villain role make her a totally awesome antagonist. The hints that she is more than just a crazed supernatural killer makes her an all around character. The fact that everything seems to be against her makes her sympathetic.

Of course, her voice acting is great. CONGRULATIONS and ITS PERFECTO are things I'll remember about this anime. Umineko is nothing without the one and only Beato.

I also voted for all the stakes, because they really are that awesome. Besides the fanservicey outfits, they manage to have their own distinct personalities, making me wonder why the "villains" seem to have more development.

Ronove is just a class act for a demon.

I would have voted for Bernkastel because she looks great and reminds me of a certain character from Higurashi. However, she seems to be a total bitch and even though she probably has been through a lot, I can't help but hate her guts especially with what happened with Ange.

First of all, because she's the first witch to appear in the series and the second main protagonist next to Battler.

While all the witches' appearances are against the cliche, Beatrice particularily stands out for me because she has the perfect personality to match her role as a witch. She's cruel, but the right amount of cruel. She's not one to toy around with the dead and plans her murders with much thought and uniqueness, which earns many respect points from me.

Another reason is because, just like Battler, she can be very wacky while in a playful mood. If you didn't realize by now I love this quality in a character.

This may be a little weird to say but I also find her very gorgeous, which contrasts with her personality excellently.

I will say so far Ange is my favorite witch but she cant really count my faves are

Eva-Beatrice- If i was a witch (or in my case sorceror) i could see myself easily be like her.

Ronove- Mostly cuz hes almost exactly the same as Sebastian michaels, personality, race, even job wise (I honestly wouldnt know who would win if they fought each other, let alone who to go for)

I like all the stakes, butmy favorite is Belphegor (she always stuck out to me for some reason in the anime) followed by Mammon

I actually really liek almost all of the witches side except the siestas (they really turned me off at first cuz they were so over powered and they were introduced right when i was like FUXX YEAH HUMAN SIDES FIGHTING BACK. and then they came in and there was no hope for the humans anymore. it got better in ep 4 but just barely enough to redeem them). I do love 410 from the anime Nihihi~
